allen, homie, you gonna be doing any tuning the thursday or friday before the meet, im prolly leaving wednesday night so i can get a good tune on this pile.
the truck was limping last year so i just watched...all be damn if my truck will be down again this year (truck currently has 2 thrown rods lol). im doing my best to get the turd back together so i can run this go round.
honestly, no sure, especially with highly modded trucks, that can take all day/night. i might do a tweek here or there, but no full , himodded trucks, just too much time, i won't rush it.Quote:

His current fastest time is 11.88 I believe. Please check in the newbie area and post of pics/details of your ride.Quote:

do you have a wideband in that truck? it really needs one if now.
i can't start from scratch and do a full tune on a highly modded truck, just tweeks in the amount of time i'll have.
so how strict is their tech?
not sure, their rules are listed on www.sanantonioraceway.com
i'm not gonna speak for them and say they are relaxed or strict, but they are fair, they just have to be sure to follow the rules, but i've seen relaxed situations.
Ill agree with allen. They are inbetween. Depends on the situation.. Just dont have trash in your bed lol. Think that was a issue last year.
They do have their limits, ask Mic. :laugh:
Be sure you have steel valve stems in your drag slicks, got called on that one last year. You might beat that by tech'ing in with street tires on and then go put the slicks on.
Yeah, no deer corn in the bed, Alton. :LOL:
good to knowQuote:

Having shaved door handles is another no-no.
I believe the steel valve stem rule is only if you're running tubes. If you have a true tubeless tire I cannot see the point of a steel valve stem unless they're afraid your going to make enough power to knock a stem out of the rim. If you have tubes, be sure you have the rim screws in, if you spin the tire on the rim you'll rip the valve stem out of the tube.
